Safe behind another turned up glass of empty time I put my hand on the bottle And start my day Run and hide From dirty deeds that pleased the moment's eyes I keep my hand on the throttle But there's no escape Searching for my way through the dark But I'm feeling like I'm back at the start And for all the sins that I can't confess For all the pain that ain't left me yet I need some peace in my heart A little rest for the wicked I'll atone Tally up the blame I bare alone And I'll walk through the fire If it's what I owe Still I try To find a life that I could recognize But I'm willing to follow Just take me home Searching for my way through the dark But I'm feeling like I'm back at the start And for all the sins that I can't confess For all the pain that ain't left me yet I need some peace in my heart A little rest for the wicked Fear sheds and falls all around me Show me the road I'll take it as far as it goes I got nothing but time No one to please And nothing to change my mind I'm finally home I'm searching for my way through the dark But I'm feeling like I'm back at the start And for all the sins that I can't confess For all the pain that ain't left me yet I need some peace in my heart A little rest for the wicked
